The Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ

Christmas Eve 5:00 Choral Mass with Blessing of the Creche

Christmas Eve 11:00 Choral Mass

Christmas Day 10:00 Mass with Organ

A special thank you to the Klugh family who donated the outdoor Nativity Set and to Brandon Gorman and his grandfather, who built its stable and   the Brotherhood of St Andrew who helped put it up.



And thank you to the Altar Guild and Brotherhood for directing the greening of the church for Christmastide. It looks beautiful and we couldn’t do it without you!
